My aim as a designer is to create products that make people happy.
Although I have received many honors and XXXX_ is in the permanent collections of various most important museums, I wanted to deliver XXXX_ to people, their daily life. That is my biggest dream.
Since XXXX_ was shown in many exhibitions, I have received extremely complimentary remarks about this design concept. I am totally confident that XXXX_ has enormous potential.
Consequently, I would like to find a new collaborator who can help me “make people happy” by taking my XXXX_ to the next level.
XXXX_ is a transformable furniture system, that is made of just components; 4 different lengths of sticks, rings and joints.
Each separate part is very average, but when put together it is easy to see that the whole is more than the sum of its parts. In a beautiful synergy, this transformable yet elegant piece of furniture can be contracted or expanded as needed. Sofas, stools, tables, benches to name a few, can be created from only 8 different elements within the building kit. This expanding system has endless possibilities.

XXXX_ has been a participant in many exhibitions and galleries. The sofa is part of the permanent collection at Museum of Modern Art (MoMA) in NYC, and the Victoria and Albert Museum (V&A) in London, as well as the Vitra Design Museum in Germany. It was also nominated for "Design of the year 2012" by the Design Museum of London.
However, the biggest honor to me comes from seeing people's smiles and receiving their genuine compliments.

My aim for the project is to deliver XXXX_ to people, their daily life.
I believe that the most important element for making a good thing is “Communication”. Therefore, I would like to discuss until both understand well.
